I have a military Graflex XL (KS-98B). I have had it about 12 years and have loved using it. Recently, the little lugs or guides inside the focus ring sheared off. (The little studs or guides or whatever you call them that fit into the lens barrels when they are inserted into the body and which ride in the focusing tracks of the lenses.) Is there any possibility of getting these repaired/replaced, or getting a new focusing ring, or do I just need a need body for the camera? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail me directly if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

Hi,
Check the "Focus tips" thread in this forum. There are a couple of suggestions in there (inc. 1 from me) about people who may be able to help. And, PLEASE, post it here if you have any luck getting repairs.
Best,
AJ
